Abstract

Ambiguous chirality transfer: A surprising reversal of chirality transfer from carbon to metal is reported in the asymmetric synthesis of a chiral ruthenium complex, affording the metal-centered configuration or δ depending only on the chemical composition of the side chain of a chiral salicyloxazoline auxiliary.
